    Default HAIL TO MY SAVIOR KYLE!!!!

    What an amazing, amazing day it has turned out to be....

    I used to have a beautiful, gorgeous midas blenny with bright blue eyes and a striking bright yellow body with long streamers on his tail...I lost him about two months ago, never saw him again, and it was a bummer to lose such a striking fish!!!!...or so I thought!

    One of our great GC Reef employees, Kyle, many of you know him as he is active here on MAAST, came over tonight to check out some stuff in my tank, and he commented on how quiet my ACE-made overflow box was, and upon further inspection, he said, "hey, you know you have a fish in there!!!!!"

    We checked it out and my poor midas blenny had been in there for about two months!!!! I guess he stayed healthy and was fed well with food going to the sump, we got him out and now he is swimming happily in the tank!!!!

    What a great story, thanks Kyle for your keen eyes!!!!

    My watchman was gone for a week, and I remember the amazement of finding him in the overflow after giving up on him. I can only imagine the joy you felt with finding your little guy after TWO MONTHS! Has he lost some of his color? My goby turned from yellow to white.

    yea it's crazy what you will find in over flows, I found a McCoskers wrasse in mine for 2 months. I peeked over one day and there it was, only to have it jump out a week later.
